What is it about birthdays? Some people love them, some hate them, and some just seem not to care about them. To me when I was younger I really did not really like to be the center of attention and now that I am older I still do not want to be the center of attention at a party for I really wanted was just to be remembered maybe with a special card of sorts. As one gets older birthdays are just like any other day.

    I celebrate my birthday all month long as my dad died on my 10th birthday. This year my kids were going to give me a party but I told them I didn't want a party, so we took a trip! Great trip and what they want to do from now on!❤️
